ショーデネーでののおすすめグラベルライド

Santenay is a charming wine-growing village in Côte-d’Or. It consists of renowned vineyards, thermal baths and the Sorine mill, offering a beautiful harmony between nature and tradition.

In a town in the Moselle Valley, which, like Burgundy, is internationally renowned for its winemaking, I found the following slogan (without citing the source) on a large billboard: "The earth, the vine, the sunshine, they bring us the golden wine. But if it weren't for the work of the winemaker, even the finest glasses would remain empty." The statement fits perfectly with the monument shown here.

Now it’s off to Beaune or the vineyards!

beautiful cycling between the vineyards

Very beautiful canal, with continuous cycle path (EV6)

Magnificent in October or November when the hillsides are adorned with autumnal hues 🍂🍁(preferably in the sun, which was not my case)

A charming and relaxing site ideal for a break or a picnic (tables and benches available) during your bike ride. The place is definitely worth the very small detour of a hundred meters from the C8 municipal road.

Unfortunately, the future is still unclear, at least until the confiscation by the state becomes legally binding and the way can finally be paved for a new use. Until then, the castle will continue to fall into disrepair - what a pity.
